Why The Scarcity Of Research Studies On Holistic Therapies

There is a scarcity of research studies done on holistic therapies, while at the same time, there are thousands of published research studies on therapies involving surgical and drug interventions. Have you ever wondered why?

The answer is simple – research studies done on drugs and surgery are funded by Big Pharma. Thanks to the unconscionably enormous revenue they derive from drug sales, drug companies have billions of dollars to spend yearly on research. And the results of their ‘research’ nearly always substantiate the use of their drugs for health problems. Interesting, no?

Mr. Borrell writes: “Over the past twelve years, anesthesiologist, Scott Reuben, revolutionized the way physicians provide pain relief to patients undergoing orthopedic surgery for everything from torn ligaments to worn out hips. Now the profession is in shambles after an investigation revealed that at least 21 of Reuben’s published papers were pure fiction, and that pain drugs he touted ( in these papers) may have slowed post operative healing.”

“We’re talking about millions of patients worldwide, where postoperative pain management has been affected by the research findings of Dr. Reuben.”

Dr. Reuben was a member of the speaker’s bureau of the pharmaceutical company, Pfizer, and received five independent research grants from them.

Paul White, an editor at the Journal of Anesthesia & Analgesia (which published 10 of Reuben’s “fraudulent” papers, estimates that Reuben’s studies led to the sales (in the billions of dollars) of potentially dangerous drugs known as COX2 inhibitors, Pfizer’s Celebrex (celecoxib) and Merck’s Vioxx (refecoxib). The therapeutic benefits of these drugs are now in question.

The Scarcity Of Research Studies On Holistic Therapies

Research done on alternative therapy is almost never funded by the pharmacological industry and usually must be paid for by independent researchers or trust funds, with limited economic resources. Hence the scarcity of good research publications on alternative health, versus the voluminous amount of published publications on drug and surgical interventions.

Compared to the thousands and thousands of people doing research on drugs and surgery, there are relatively few doing research on holistic therapies. And amongst these few, only a hand full is doing research in the area of chronic muscle and joint pain.

Professor/Dr. Rothbart is one such independent researcher (not funded by Big Pharma or any other company with an agenda for a specific outcome). His discoveries and holistc therapy is based on over 40 years of research findings and clinical experience in treating patients with chronic pain.
